Random Summer Fun

Fun things we have done this summer:

Celebrated National Donut Day

Spent a fun Sunday afternoon at Dave and Janie's house, swinging, chasing the cat and trying out fresh vegetables from the garden.

 Being silly at the Dollar Store.

Played at the splash pad.

 

Ate giant sno cones.

 

Did a little more bowling.

 

I promise Nick was there for most of the fun, but he was taking the pictures.  We are looking forward to the rest of what summer has to bring including friends visiting, a new house and hopefully more sno cones!

Fourth of July Weekend

...Because you know, that was only a month ago.  

We had so much fun that weekend!  The Bacchus Family and the Peterson Family came up to Idaho to visit and celebrate with us.  Here are some highlights, which I'm pretty sure are not in order, but are relatively close:

We went to the Boise Fourth of July Parade.

 

We decorated cookies.

 

We spent some time hanging out in the backyard, which included water balloon baseball, the trampoline and tons of other water fun!

 We went to the Pirate park!

The grandkids got a treat at Fast Eddys! (Thanks Grandpa and Grandma!)

We went to Big Al's for bowling and arcade games.

We, of course, did Fireworks!

We loved on Wade.

 On our last night together we made woof 'ems and smores!  We also hung out and played some more in the Esslinger's backyard.

I LOVE spending time with my sisters and their trip was much too short.  My favorite part though was watching the cousins play together and seeing how much fun they were having.  We did miss having our whole family there, but we definitely enjoyed our time together and I for one can't wait until we can do it again.
